Cool site my brother found
My Parents Were Awesome
Where people submit photos of their parents before they came along to de-cool the "rents", as the kids say. Steve submitted the photo of our Dad that I posted here in December and, with any luck, it'll be posted on MPWA in a week or so.
Strictly speaking, that photo wasn't taken before we came around to ruin our folks' lives -- we were already on the scene, tho probably only 18 mos and newborn at the time. There is, somewhere in the family archives, a photo of Dad in his high school football uniform but it's been decades since anybody saw that one.
I love the very idea of this site. It's such a refreshing break to see a tribute to parents, even if it's for something as trivial as looking snappy.
